Abstract

This paper addresses the limitation of current multilinear techniques (multilinear PCA, multilinear ICA) when applied to face recognition for handling faces in unseen illumination and viewpoints. We propose a new recognition method, exploiting the interaction of all the subspaces resulting from multilinear decomposition (for both multilinear PCA and ICA), to produce a new basis called multilinear-eigenmodes. This basis offers the flexibility to handle face images at unseen illumination or viewpoints. Experiments on benchmarked datasets yield superior performance in terms of both accuracy and computational cost.
